Thanks Liz. I liked the impression in the end but still question the intensity of the colors. I think there will be more of this subject in the future with a variety of approaches. As always, I appreciate your comments. Hope all is well back east!

This is beautiful. Your combined discipline and loose style really pays off here. Stunning work.

Thanks Pam. Had fun with this one. Sunrise series is a great idea. I am always amazed at the many forms the Peak take over the year.

This is strong. I think you captured it. We don’t get this view, our house is on the westside and we look toward the plaina. You could do a sunrise series, kind of a Kevin Macpherson “life on a pond.” He has so much to share.

Thanks Dana. I look to your site for inspiration often, which helped me on this one. Cool to know your son lives here. I love it but must confess that your pics of California make me jealous sometimes!

I really like the way you handled the paint on this and kept it loose. It really works!
You are lucky to have this beautiful view, it’s one my son in Colorado Springs also enjoys!
